Spiffing Fashion Tips from Camilla and George

For all our dear fans that want to get themselves a vintage 1950’s look, here’s a helping hand from our TV team, George and Camilla.

Ladies, when looking to ‘dress to impress’ as one would say, a slick up-do always works a charm on ones hair. Keep make up to a minimum and remember that ladies pinch for perky, pink cheeks!

Daywear should consist of a full circle skirt and a fitted, neutral coloured cardigan. Pearls are always a splendid option to add an element of class to an outfit.

Evening wear should consist of a dress with gloves and heels to accompany. Floral prints are always an eye catcher but do remember to act ‘every inch the lady’ no matter what sort of attention you are attracting!

Gents, it’s all about the dickie bow tie if you’re out to impress the ladies. Dress it down in the day with a vibrant coloured cardie – as modelled here by our very own George!

A pinstripe suit is a must for any gent’s wardrobe but remember to leave a little ankle showing with bright white socks underneath.

Hair should be slicked back or over to the side and a clean shave is always a must – one must have standards!

If you have any specific requests on style, dear fans, do drop us a note and we will get our experts on all things spiffing on the case for you.

Chin Chin for now
